Why I chose to re-do my double page spread

I chosen to re-do my double page spread because I felt that it was the poorest page I made in my old magazine.  I did not feel it was to the best standard, however it did not take me a while to create it.  But I did learn some valuable things for creating a double page spread, I learnt about what layouts look good and what features and colours look effective.  I learnt about the gutters and margins and what you should and shouldn't do.  These were good skills that I picked up from creating my double page spread as it gave me the skills and the ideas I needed to create my final product double page spread.  Overall I am happy that I redid the double page spread and the other pages as it gave me the skills and ideas to make my final product even better.  This was a part of my planning towards my final product.

Why I chose to re-do my contents page

I chose to re-do my contents page because for this one I just wanted to play around with the layout.  I wanted to see what looked good and effective, again making the contents page did not take me that long but it gave me some good ideas to create my final product contents page.  Some of the features that I have within my draft magazine I have inputted to my final product contents page.  This again was a part of my planning for my final product.  I wanted to make sure that my final product contents page was as good as possible. 

Why I chose to re-do my front cover

I chose to re-do my front cover as I felt it did not suit my target audience and I did not suit my Genre.  Another reason is that the feedback I received was good but I wanted my magazine to be the best it could be.  I made the first magazine so that I could develop the skills I gained from the prelim task and do more wild and wonderful things in a magazine front cover.  This is why I chose the specific colour theme and the layout of the front cover.  I did this so I could gain some ideas for my actual magazine front cover.  The first magazine that I created did not take me that long to create, so I did not affect me in anyway to make it.  But it did benefit me because from the creation of the prelim task and my first magazine I was able to have the skills to create the best front cover I could possibly make.  This was part of my planning to my final product.
